Elvin left, and so did Rodriguez.
There was no acute pain, but deep inside there was a hint of loss, overshadowed by a lingering sense of relief that was hard to describe.
Yang Yi could tolerate surveillance by undercover agents and cleaners monitoring his every move, but he could not accept the presence of an undercover agent within the Organization of Water. That was different.
Yang Yi had considered having Anton or Zhang Yong take out Rodriguez for him—not directly, but rather after confirming Rodriguez's identity, with Anton making the confirmation.
In the end, though, Yang Yi abandoned the idea out of respect for the cleaners, suspecting them the most. Thus, he decided to confront Rodriguez himself for a clear answer. If it turned out as he suspected, he would let Rodriguez go; if not, he would take action himself.
